Sissoko ... The New Vieira ???

[LFCMadPaul 10]

What I saw was him giving away a free kick every time he went near a Barcelona player.

 

every time hey ...... what you got for eyes man ....... pickled onions

[Yodameister 10]

Well it seems to me the debate you want to have is is he the best midfielder in the world at the moment or the best midfielder ever

 

Alright you're excited cos you beat Barcelona, fair enough!

no just wanted peoples opinions, nothing to do with barca but to say he is average is nonsense ... well all the ex players and footballing experts think he is better than average so ill take their word over yours mate ..... ok u dont rate him .. fair enough..

[Yodameister 10]

Well we will wait for the other forummers who are queueing up to sing his praises.

 

I've seen so many players that fans think is the best thing since sliced bread only for them to be sold soon after and suddenly its "he was never much good anyway"

oooops i thought it said the new viagra, my bad, i blame John Smith

[Robbie Loving 10]

He's pretty average. I reckon he'll be out of Liverpool within 18 months.

 

Na not at all, the kid great potential, but not in the same mould of Vieira (correct spelling by the way Paul). Vieira was a tough tackling player yes, but he started bringing a good attacking element in to his game for Arsenal, where as Sissoko is plain and simply a defensive minded midfielder with lots of energy.

 

My first impression of Sissoko was that he was useless and gave away too many fouls, but after further evaluation of him he has a lot more to his game. I think he will be at 'Pool for a good few years yet and will become an excellent partner in centre for Stevie, and maybe shove Alonso out to the right?

 

Kirsty, how do you only have 1500 posts!

 

Think the fact she joined in april '06 indicates that she set a new account up.

You have asked a question to people, so should expect critiscm/varied opinion. Not that I agree with Yoda on this point.

[LFCMadPaul 10]

yeah all true, apart from maybe the alonso to the right bit

I think also that momo is good now but has potential to be really good.

Granted, he does give a high percentage of fouls away, but look at his work rate, amount of tackles he goes into etc

I think one area of his game in need of improvemt is his passing range. If he sorts that part of his game out then for me, bearing in mind he has just turned 20 yrs, he could be within a few years ...a world class midfield player

The next Viera is pushing it a tad.

 

I would go for the next Diomede!

yeah mate could well be but seeing as they play in totally different positions, that is not a very good comparison.

What position are you saying Diomede plays in?

if your refering to the diomede that played for pool yonks ago ... he was a wide/winger sort of player

Sissoko is a CM
